A D A D Bm F#m D A

[Verse]

A D A D

Take it away, I can't stand to see

Bm F#m D A

You holding him the way you held me

A D A D

It was bound to taste right, it was bound to be brief

Bm F#m D A

And as for me babe I guess I'm bound to leave

[Verse 2]

A D A D

Fall to the floor, your stain on my jeans

Bm F#m D A

And three hundred miles between me and Orleans

A D A D

I'll think of you babe, I give you my word

Bm F#m D A

I'll think of you babe while I'm kissing her

A D

[Verse 3]

A D A D

'Cause Leanne cut ties and Jay Bird split town

Bm F#m D A

And Allie says I shouldn't be hanging 'round

A D A D

So what's there to hope and who's there to please

And what's there to love on long nights like these

Bm F#m D A

Aw who's there to love on dead long nights like these

[Interlude]

A D A D Bm F#m D A

[Verse 4]

A D A D

A warm shot of rye, straight to the head

Bm F#m D A

And three candles lit at the Royal Frenchmen

It's hard to recall just what I said wrong

Bm F#m D A

It's hard to recall why you wanted me gone

A D

[Verse 5]

A D A D

So are you passing out? Or are you leaning in?

Bm F#m D A

That wasted farewell, I'm too drunk to pretend

A D A D

That you gave him your hand, you sweet southern belle

Bm F#m D A

But all that you had to give me was hell

Bm F#m D A

But all that you had to give me was hell

[Interlude]

A D A D Bm F#m D A

[Verse 6]

A D A D

So take it away, I can't stand to see

You kissing him the way you kissed me

But he'll never kiss you the way that I did

No he'll never kiss you the way that I did
